Each of our campaigns needs your energy, your passion and your voice. Become an EIActivist: click on the links below to learn how you can make a difference.
Are you concerned about climate change, the ozone layer, shrinking rainforests? Would you like to stop the hunting of endangered wild animals and the deadly but lucrative trade in their meat, tusks and skins?
If so, you can help support EIA’s investigative and campaign work by magnifying our voice, influence and impact. The long-term success of our campaigns depends upon public pressure: pressure on companies that engage in unsustainable practices, and pressure on governments that fail to implement the policies and regulations needed to halt illegal or unsustainable trade in wildlife and other environmental goods.
You can also make a difference as a consumer. Changes in purchasing habits can have a major impact on how U.S. companies source products made from environmentally sensitive materials, such as rainforest timber. Customer protests can persuade U.S. frozen fish retailers to pressure their Japanese parent companies to stop stocking whale meat.
If you haven’t read them yet, please also visit our campaign homepages - Species in Peril, Forests for the World and Global Climate - by clicking on the bar icons above left.

Forests for the World:
Making smart consumer decisions is one of the most effective ways to help stop illegal logging. Read EIA's Tips on buying sustainable wood products.
Global Climate:
Write a letter to your local supermarket requesting that they only purchase strawberries and other fruits and vegetables grown without methyl bromide, a pesticide that destroys the ozone layer.
